I have only used Viper car alarms on every vehicle I've owned, they are one of the best out here, even the basic Viper alarms. I have never had any issues with viper alarms or false alarms. And I like Sonics customer service and great prices.

I was a professional alarm installer, I got to work with different alarm types and brands. Directed makes the best most trusted alarm systems in the market. For me this is a no brainer to purchase this system which is packed of cool features.

I have a 2013 ram 4x4.I recently had the 5706v system installed in it. the system was working fine until yesterday. when for no apparent reason the remote commands produce no results even when standing right beside the truck.. that goes for all commands. can anyone help.?

Best Answer:Check to see if the alarm system lost power or the receiving antenna is loose at the connector at the antenna. You can also try re enrolling the remotes. The remotes are charged or have new batteries correct?

Best Answer:Hea V,My Ford pickup has the alarm and remote start on the key but I never did anything to bypass the factory systems, excepting having new keys made so I did'nt activate the factory systems by mistake. Every once in a while the factory alarm will go off when I open the door, you can tell because it's the horn honking like crazy, I start the truck, turn it off and we're good to go.

I have a 2014 Nissan Qashqai, petrol engine, manual gearbox and standard keystart, will the 5706v work with it and what else will I need? Thanks in advance.

Viper 5706V

Viper 5906V

Best Answer:It'll work with any car once you get something like a transponder for the key. I have a push to start so the transponder corresponds with my key and allows me to remote start the engine. If you have a standard key you'll need something just like it. However your more then likely to need an extra key. Depending on the year of the car the extra key may carry a chip inside so all that will run you extra money

Best Answer:You will need a Idatalink ADS-alca. You will also need it programmed for that truck by a installer that has the account and ability to program and download the install manual. The manuals are specific per vehicle your installing

Thank Brain:) I have an installer here in town he wants to put a 5706 Python in my truck with a DB All. $200 for alarm, $99.95 for DB All & $250 for labor.$572.51 out the door. What's your thoughts Brain?

Best Answer:The 5706V is indeed the same as the 5906V in that they both have remote start, 1 mile range, car temperature, aux, directed's super encrypting, etc. As far as I can tell, the 5906V remote is the only difference and I have had both systems. The 5906V remote is color, the 5706V is not , the 5906V has remote start on the front of the remote, the 5706V has it on the side.However, the 5906V remote is like $175.00 to replace (the 5706V is around $100.00). I have four dead 5906V remotes sitting in a desk drawer next to me right now and this is after Directed sent four remote housings free of charge (call the number on the back of the remote).The 5906V remote has a swivel for your keys coming out the bottom of the housing, this is where the trouble starts as the swivel will break (losing your keys) then the remote goes on the fritz. You can see the loop for keys on the 5706V remote, this has held up good for me for a few years now.Best wishes to you Davonte.

Best Answer:I can not tell you much about the Excalibur products but the viper 5706 is a good alarm. I have installed DEI (viper products) for 14 years and have had very few issues. It is a large company and owns many brands. The R&D is there for a great product. I have installed off brand alarms and have Had nothing but problems.

No comparison, opposite side of the spectrum in terms of quality. In my opinion, if you can't afford the viper, go with a Prestige by Audiovox. I have worked with both Viper and Prestige for years and they are my 1st and 2nd choice respectively. Hope this helps.

You don't need to wire remote start wires in order for keyless entry to work but for security you would still need to wire up wires like ignition, 2 starter wires (for starter kill) the only wires you don't need to wire are accessory and status wireOf course if you decide to go with remotestart option you will need bypass and there more wires to hook up

Best Answer:Yes it will. You need to make sure you go in and set the wait to start delay for the glow plugs. Either use the valet button to do it or if you can sprint for the bit writer or pay a shop to use their bit writer to set this setting for you

When installing 5706v on my BMW I had a problem...After istallation it shows that my car is manual though it isn't: it's steptronic. So it works partly, that is it opens and closes the doors but it doesn't run the car. An error occurrs on the pager. How can I solve this?

Best Answer:Go to Menu 3-> Menu item 1 -> switch to option 2Factory setting is set to manual transmission, you need to switch to automatic

Ok here is what you need to do. Find installation manual or sheet that came with your system (not warranty one, you need installation guide)Read how to program feauters Menu 1 is securityMenu 2 is convenientMenu 3 is remote startYou need Menu 3 ->submenu 1 for switching between manual and automatic transmission If I could send picture I would explaine little better as we could be on different pages right now

Best Answer:its a hand held computer used to program the alarm when you're done installing it instead of using the remote and program button on the alarm you just plug the programmer into the alarm and program all the features you want i got a viper programmer so i stick to vipers to make it simple

The questions you post are answered by our Customers. Not us. Surely Grigoriy does NOT sell anything from Viper, including the 5904v . Of which, a quick search on our website will show we Do carry, link below. Moreover, ANY remote start system will work for you vehicle, there is no need to ask for each specific model. Your vehicle Will require a bypass, but no one except "autosho" will know if they can provide you one. The recommended bypass is in the description of a given kit; for the 5904v its the XpressKit DBALL2, also linked below.

Note: To reiterate; When asking a question on these threads, you will get responses from average customers, Not us. If you must ask us directly, you can contact us by traditional means. (i.e. Phone Call or Email) .

The 5904v is almost the same as 5704v differents is in remote itself. Bypass roughly runs from 50 to 100 bucks. Installer might have proper bypass for you as well as remotestart system. But if you looking for cheaper way this is not one of the easy one to install unless you familiar with all this stuff

After researching this specific product, unfortunately we don't have the necessary information to assist you. Due to the limited information at our disposal, we're not in the position to provide you with the answer you're seeking. Therefore we invite you to contact the manufacturer directly for additional support. Since they have additional resources at their disposal, they're much better equipped to aid in your request.

I looked at owners manual pdf download. It did not show installation wiring instructions. Are instructions for interconnection to vehicle included? Can I download them to see before I buy?

A shopper on Aug 29, 2014

Best Answer:Hello,

Those instructions are not supplied, because the manufacture recommends/implies that an Authorized Professional Installer is meant to do the installation. In addition, the Bypass needed for this system - assuming your vehicle requires one - can only be uploaded by said installer. Also, we do not have or offer vehicle specific wiring, because we too encourage a professional install. We support DIY , but Remote Start Kits have proven to be a precarious install that we cannot advise on.
